8:32 I actually did that once. Apparently, I walked into the kitchen, turned on the light, opened the fridge, grabbed the watermelon bowl out of the fridge, and ate a piece of watermelon. I woke up choking on the piece of watermelon and my mom was just standing there shocked. I’m obviously alive though…but it was still scary. I can’t stand the feeling of not being able to breathe. I had a childhood trauma apparently that caused that. Let me know if you want the story.

[@mallorydagreatest5963]

[@tabithashipley9605]

@@mallorydagreatest5963 Childhood trauma story? Alrighty. I was six and in first grade. One night, I just could not sleep. My mom gave me melatonin after melatonin and I still couldn’t sleep. Eventually, I got to sleep and morning rolled around. I went to school that day just fine, but ended up overdosing. Me nor my mom knew that would happen. I stopped breathing and my heart stopped. I was rushed to the hospital and obviously they saved my life. I stopped breathing first, which is where the trauma came from I believe. I didn’t remember this happened until someone told me the story, and then it became obvious that’s why I don’t like not being able to breathe.

[@benjy117]

I have had a sleep disorder for years and it is frightening. Sleep paralysis is very scary at first and could still be very hard to deal with at a young age. When I was a child at 10 or so I would have the same nightmare of someone pulling my covers off the bed and a bloodhound running down the road with the sound of an ambulance over and over again. I realized when I was older at around 18 I suffered from sleep paralysis. Sometimes I believed I was abducted by aliens and experimented on and your mind makes it feel real. I would have pains in my arms and legs after those nightmares. Come to find out I was actually stuck in between a lucid dream and being aware of my surroundings. I could not make words per say but I could make myself snort or breath hard to wake myself up from these horrid visions. I believe it is a curse that runs in my family. I found out while I was a teenager that I had a great great great grandfather who practiced witchcraft. I at times can control my dreams. I have done it many times. Many times if I desire... I can actually choose what woman I want to be with in my dream.. and it's a lucid to say the least. lol. Now at 40 I can still do this. Probably why I don't go chasing after too many women in real life lol. Why? When I can have them all already in my own world? But the downfall is that sleep paralysis and seeing things beside me with the most horrible noises and sounds whatever my minds comes up with. I have learned to fight back against it but it still something I struggle with from month to month at times. (once as a child in middle school I saw hands coming out of the floor which I thought was real because I was stuck in my sleep and couldn't move and it was the most terrifying dream or paralysis I ever had)

I can attest to the somniphobia or whatever it’s called. My son passed from SIDS when he was asleep. He was 4 months old. It happened at 3 in the morning when most people in my house were asleep. It happened 7 years ago and I’m still terrified to sleep every night because I’m scared it’s going to happen again to my other children.

[@hannahlarocco4699]

Why

[@NerdOfTheTrees]

night terrors are horrible to deal with, I've suffered with them since I was a little kid. I hated going to bed as a kid, because I was so scared of seeing the nightmares when I closed my eyes. Even as an adult, I still sometimes fight against sleep. I wake up with a lot of marks on my body from throwing myself around while asleep.

[@markboland8197]

Exactly how I got really into touchy touchy.

[@danielbenitez6985]

I used to have constant dreams about demons trying to scare me. Finally I grew angry about it. So angry that eventually during my nightmare I would have a type of consciousness when a demon appeared, and instead of waking up right away in fear, I would reach toward it and try to attack it. After a few of these instances, I eventually stopped having nightmares and haven't had any in years. It's as if I conquered my fears.

[@Aethelhald]

Anyone ever had sleep paralysis? It's terrifying. I had it every night for about 6 months when I was 19. Exact same thing every night. I'd go to sleep and have the exact same dream. In the dream I'd get out of bed, walk to the bedroom door, and I had no idea I was dreaming - I'd feel my feet touch the floor as I took each step to the door, I'd put my hand on the door handle to open the door and an unseen force would pull me back to my bed, as if I were floating backwards away from the door and back in to bed, and this is where the sleep paralysis began - I'd be lying in bed with my eyes open, able to move my eyes and look around the room (even able to see my dog sleeping, drinking her water, doing whatever she was doing at the time) but totally unable to move a single muscle in my body, and there'd be black shadows with weird pink orbs for eyes staring at me. You can't move, you can't talk, you can't wake up, and it feels like it goes on for hours - hours with these pink eyed shadows staring at me, and then eventually after what feels like hours I'd regain my ability to move and wake up, only to go back to sleep and have the exact same thing happen all over again, all night, every time I went to sleep. After around 6 months of this I conquered it. Whenever I went to bed I'd fall asleep saying to myself over and over (in my head, not out loud) "don't touch the door." I even taped a piece of paper to the door, just above the handle, which said in big letters "DON'T TOUCH THE DOOR" so that even in my dreams, whenever I saw the door, I'd see the sign. It worked. When I fell asleep and began to dream that I had gotten out of of bed and was walking to the door, I was actually able to say to myself in the dream "It's happening, don't touch the door" and I'd wake up. It happened one final time a few years after that - exact same thing as before - I touched the door handle to open the door and was pulled back in to bed and the pink eyed shadow demons were all around me, staring at me, and that was it, never happened again up to this point (for around 10 years).

[@austinbost4653]

I had sleep paralysis back in middle school for a long time, I beat mine as well. I could feel my body go to sleep and I would just open my eyes as soon as possible..If I didnt catch it fast enough i would fall asleep and be stuck looking around the room. Falling asleep to videos or tv also helped a lot

[@Aethelhald]

yes, but I cannot open my eyes (once I was able to, but just a sliver) so I don't see things during sleep paralysis. Still the worst scariest thing in the world.

I kept up with a person who had a really rare insomnia disorder, he was in his early 20’s, but hadn’t developed the disorder till in his late teen’s. In his last 4-6 month’s of his life he’d blog about what he’s experiencing, and how much it’s expanding day to day. He had been diagnosed with a super rare disease in which would cause him to die if he went to sleep. He stayed awake for a couple years straight, aside from the very few days he’d be monitored by doctor’s who had been able to figure out a way for him to sleep in a sort of daze like state. He said he mentally couldn’t have a complete train of thought and he’d stayed up so long he felt himself physically dying more every day. He did end up passing and I couldn’t bring myself to raad his last few entries.

No flapping my arms like wings though that's how my mom did it. And we both flew over our world's. Our cities or towns, our streets, our yards. Our general vicinity.

@@Celtics20 you're so quick to blame video games but forget that students are assigned large amounts of homework from multiple subjects within a short time period.

I have it once a month and when you have just try to sleep don't open your eyes or don't move, you will get out of it.

[@LOTR_BTTF]

Well as someone who regularly sleeps on their back as that's pretty much the ONLY position I can consistently fall asleep in; I have had it a few times, but usually only if I accidentally fall asleep with my arms up above my head or my hands locked together (like if my hands are resting on my chest/stomach), If I do either one of those, I will inevitably wake up just enough at some point to want to move my hands/arms to a more comfortable position, but not awake enough to do it. Usually what happens is, over what I'd guess would be a couple minutes, I can feel myself pulling harder and harder, till finally I manage to "heave" my hands/arms free. It's only happened a few times, and it's a little stressful when it's happening, but not overly so (though I'm a VERY light sleeper, so it's probably a little easier for me to get out of it than some). I usually fall right back asleep and barely even think about it later. And as long as I remember to have my arms in a comfortable position and hands not together, then I don't have any problems.

[@aaronvillegas7681]

How and when did you start becoming a lucid dreamer

[@robertkimmel5416]

I wasn't able to start lucid dreaming until my mid 20s. I am 43 now. The "how" question. I will answer it the best I can. I once went to sleep around 2am and I had to get up for work at 6am. This bothered me subconsciously, because I kept telling myself over and over again, "I need to get up." This turned out to be my first lucid dream ever. As I kept telling myself over and over again that I had to get up, I would open my eyes every so often and look around. This led to me eventually opening my eyes and seeing for the very first time that things were quite different. My bedroom curtains were a different color and so was my carpet. I then realized that my windows were in a completely different place. "Am I dreaming?" I thought. "I have to be. None of this is right." So, I then sat up in my bed meaning to get up and explore this brand new landscape. Here's the thing though. As I tried to get out of bed, it was a real struggle. And the more I focused on trying to get out of the bed, the heavier my eyes became. I ended up waking up before ever getting out of bed. I thought on these events that day at work and when I got home that evening I tried doing the same thing in order to have the same experience. It worked, but once again, I couldn't get out of bed without waking up. Fascinated by this, I continued on trying as the months passed by. It took quite some time, but eventually, I was able to get up out of bed and walk around. Still though, my eyes dropping shut and waking back up was a problem that remained. I continued working on it and practicing though, with each dream lasting just a little longer than the one before. These days, it's now second nature. I can lucid dream any time I choose and I do it often. However, not every single night. For me, after several nights of lucid dreaming, it begins to wear on me and I start to feel exhausted. So, I throw in a regular night of sleep at least twice a week. Hope this helped to answer your questions.😊

[@rudra62]

I've had the "false awakenings" thing for many years. I've called it "recursive dreaming". When I've described it, having a dream, laying down, going to sleep, and having a dream within that dream (perhaps it goes down several levels), if I could get someone to understand, they'd just look and say "That's really weird!" Yes, professionals have said the same thing. This description you gave of it of being kind of like a Russian doll of dreams is about it. I've always had a lingering question about these recursive dreams: What happens if I wake up more times than I went to sleep? Do I break out of the simulation or the matrix? Do I become "enlightened"? Do I learn that reality is not real?

I'm in the same boat, but I'm doing what I can to change that cuz lucid dreaming is amazing :) What I gleaned from the video is that it's about balance.

There's a sweet-spot in the middle and I bet that there's ways to get there intentionally. Best of luck, I'm doing experiments

That contributed to a lot of unpleasant dreams, I know it is not real so I struggle to wake up. I saw in another video that if you are in a dream state, and want to make sure of it, poke a finger through the palm of the opposite hand. If it crosses through, you are dreaming and are safe.
